Hi Surfer(s),

Londoner - new to Edinburgh, work as Financial IT Consultant for some of the well-known asset management and investment management companies in UK and Europe; comes with perks and a hell lot of stress.

I am laid back, chilled and easy to get along; love fine food, music and lil bit of arts and history.... Whislt techy and sensible by nature, I am prone to be spontaneous, daring and outdoorsy - love cycling (as advertised), running and hiking.

New to crouch surfing, so a bit nervy but Happy to host or be your guide as time permits.

Planning some trips away to escape life's madness and venture out in to the unknown places and meet some cool people.

(Like everybody here) On here to meet some locals/hangout with fellow surfers ...open to anything and everything ....food, drinks, concerts, parties, hikes and adventures,

Extrovert, so naturally avoid being alone so Say hi!! or try replying if I do ... :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Here to meet interesting people who will remain strangers otherwise. Good listener who is keen to hear your life stories, passion and experiences and share mine too.

Always great to exchange culture, language and travel recommendations, those travel guides are just textbooks if you ask me.

Happy to be a guide if you are in my city Or accompany you to places unknown to me and explore it together.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently cycled solo from Genoa, Italy to Marseilles, France totalling to around 400miles without a puncture kit :) luckily didnt get flat tyre once and was able to enjoy beautiful nature, seaside, meeting new people, trying out new dishes and exploring amazing world that`s out there.

planning bikepacking Norway or Switzerland up next, any one interested ?

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach languages like English and programming in C#, Java, SQL, VBA languages and how to trade stocks and currencies :P

Jokes aside, I am currently learning Salsa dancing and Spanish Language and will be overjoyed if anyone is willing to help me improve it. Will reimburse with a fine dinner :)
